www.SirJonesMag.us

He recently created his charitable foundation The Pol' Atteu Charitable Fund in memory of his beloved mother Ani Atteukenian, who succumbed to breast cancer, which helps children infected by the disease.
Sir Jones Magazine recently sat down with Patrik & Pol' to get to know them better…. SJM: When did you know without any doubt that you wanted to be in the entertainment industry? Patrik: When I was a kid in catholic school, I was involved in all the theater activities. I was always the kid that stood out in the crowd. I loved to entertain people and was always into the latest fashion growing up. I was a trendsetter and used to hang out on Melrose because that was what the cool kids did. When I was in high school I played the mortician in “Life and Death of Sneaky Fitch” and I kind of stole the show! I was always fascinated with celebrities and the Royal Family in Europe so I knew I would one day follow my dreams and make them a reality www.SirJonesMag.us
Pol: When I was ten years old I was the main kid in an "Oh Boy” Pizza commercial and I loved being in front of the camera and then when the commercial was on TV and I watched myself, I knew that's what I wanted to do when I grew up. Then, a few years later, I was watching “The Love Boat” on TV and Julie the Cruise Director was having a fashion show and I was so fascinated with the whole glamour and glitz of it all, that I knew on that day I would be a famous fashion designer. So, I worked hard through college and design school and made those dreams happen. What inspires you? Patrik: Life and love inspire me. Being so lucky as to wake up every day to wonderful man and my best friend, makes my life worth living. Knowing that we are this amazing team, a formidable force and a power couple that no one can tear apart is the ultimate inspiration. That fact that we have built an amazing life together and raised a beautiful, smart, healthy and happy daughter together.
When did you realize you had reached your goals in this industry? Patrik: To be honest, I don't think you ever reach your goal is this industry. It is forever evolving and I have learned you have to evolve with it to stay on top. I think one of the most exciting times for me and really when I realized this is where I want to be is when our episode of "Interior Therapy with Jeff Lewis” ran on BRAVO and we were in New York in Times Square to get Theater tickets and we are recognized by so many people and people kept stopping us and asking to take photos with us. It took so much longer to get the tickets, but the delay was worth every second. Pol: After manufacturing for years through the country and internationally, I was then able to secure my Beverly Hills location in the Golden Triangle. It is my flagship store and I have been in the same location for over 20 years.
What was your favorite TV show you appeared on to date and why? Patrik: My favorite show would have to be New Money on E! Television. This was the show that I shut down Rodeo Pol: Life and beauty and of course fashion! I have an Drive, got down on one knee and surprised Pol' with a amazing life and I get to share my love and make new memories with such a beautiful man - I call him my “Pretty marriage proposal giving him a 22 carat Diamond Ring. Immediately afterwards, a group of our closest friends and Boy” makes being on this planet worthwhile. Having my boutique at Rodeo Drive for over 25 years and creating the family members came out from the side of the building most beautiful gowns for the Beverly Hills Elite, socialites with flowers, balloons, candy and cards, which made it even more special. Proposing to someone is a life changing and celebrities gives me an outlet to use my inspirations. event and something you want to have in your memories And the fact that we have raised the most kind, caring, beautiful and smart daughter together is the cherry on top! for eternity…what a better way to do this then to have in captured on TV, which means it is forever on the world we called the web and always available for people to see that special day. Pol: When I was guest fashion designer expert on Dr. Phil I was able to do an amazing make-over on a plus sized girl with low selfesteem. I was able to show her that she truly was beautiful inside and make her her dreams of being beautiful on the outside come true. this then to have in captured on TV, which means it is forever on the world we called the web and always available for people to see that special day. When she came on stage and said Thank You for making her wish come true and told me how she felt like the princess at the ball. It was heartfelt and sincere and i was so happy to see that realization for her.
www.SirJonesMag.us
SJM: What do you enjoy most about your career? Patrik: I love working with all kinds of people from all walks of life. I have two careers. May “day job” is an agent for models and actors and I love what I do. It's a “personal high” for me as an agent is to find and discover someone that is brand new that has never done this before. A fresh face with no or limited experience and make them over and then book them for a major commercial or or major campaign and then when that comes out - “I'm like - WOW I did that” - I made that person's dreams come true. I made that all happen. As far as my TV career, I have had so much fun shooting so many different types of reality shows with my fiancé', Pol' Atteu, and I think in a way it's brought us closer together. We love to entertain people and when people come up to us (from all over the world) because they recognize us from one of the shows we have done, and ask to take pics with us, we are always happy to oblige and it's a great feeling to know that we are making people laugh and smile witnessing our antics on TV. Plus, for eternity, we have made our “mark” on the world.
www.SirJonesMag.us
Pol: Meeting the people that are wearing my gowns to their most special occasions and designing their individual looks for each person. On top on that, working with all types of celebrities, including previous First Ladies, to help them create the most unique style for them and then seeing my creation come to life on the red carpets they walk. It gives me a feeling of accomplishment and satisfaction to see my gowns on famous people on TV and major award shows. My celebrity clientele includes, Betty White, Vanna White, Patrika Darbo, Sharna Burgess, Katerina Van Graham, Dyan Cannon, Lauren Vellez, Nadja Bjorlin, Leann Hunley, Denise Richards, Renee Taylor and of course the Late Anna Nicole Smith, who is buried in my final gown I created for her. www.SirJonesMag.us
SJM: Can we expect another book from you? Patrik: I'm sure we will be working on another Anna Nicole book, as our first book “Anna Nicole Smith Portrait of An Icon� was such a success, we have much more to share. We are always writing and working on on monthly travel article for Zodi Habit Magazine, which chronicles our explorations and globetrotting adventures and showcases destinations that we inspire our readers will want to travel to. Pol: Absolutely! I am always inspired when I write and I have so many stories to tell.
SJM: What is the best way for your fans to know what you're working on? Facebook/Twitter? Do you post for your own sites or do you have your assistants do the posts? Patrik: I am constantly on social media. I update all it myself. We do have assistants that will repost for us, but usually we are involved in putting out the first post of what and where we are doing. You can find me on all the following under my name, PatrikSimpson on all social media. I love responding to fans and friends that we meet along our travels. I am really good about answering messages on all my social media. I love it when people reach out. Pol: You can find me on all the following under my name, PolAtteu on all social media. Myself and my assistant Lady D post on all my social media. I love getting comments and posts and try to respond to all it. SJM: Tell us something new, something bold that you've never told any other magazine‌news tip :) Patrik: Our very first reality show we appeared on was the Anna Nicole Show and Anna Nicole was in development with us to produce our own show. Sadly, she passed away before that we could ever shoot anything or start the process of beginning the show. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think of her and her buddy icon from AOL was HotSmoochieLips and it's still in my buddy list and so it's my daily reminder of her.
Pol: I have a fear of failure and so it keeps me working hard and striving to be the best at everything I do. That is why I am so competitive, sometimes TOO competitive. www.SirJonesMag.us
